Why cant your rocket could never reach the speed of light?

Physics
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The length of the object would shrink to zero which is not possible.

Explanation:

A rocket or any body cannot reach the speed of light because according to theory of relativity the and the Lorentz factor the length of the object would shrink to zero and the time dilation for that body would be infinite.

The Lorentz factor is given as:

\gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }

where:

v = speed of the moving object

c = speed of light

Which property of table salt is also a property of other ionic compounds
Jet001 [13]

s alluded to in the other answers, salt refers to any ionic compound that doesn't have “oxides” in it. Table salt is sodium chloride. Going down the periodic table, the first column contains lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. This group (alkali metals) of atoms (and their corresponding positive ions) gets larger in the order shown above. Therefore, their ionic bonds with chloride (or any nonmetal) gets smaller. The trend of their corresponding compounds is a decreasing hardness, decreasing melting point, decreasing boiling point, and decreasing thermal stability. These are the major periodic trends of these corresponding compounds. Other metal ions generally have higher positive charges on them. This makes the ionic bonds considerably larger and you can probably surmise most of their corresponding properties listed above. However, the details of their lattice structures may cause the overall trend to vary.

The transfer of heat from the Sun is in the form of thermal radiation (also called infrared radiation)
The transfer of heat at the person’s feet is by thermal conduction. During the day the sand will be hot so if you step on it with bare feet there will be conduction of heat to the feet.
